I'm going to start my second batch of fruit wine.
I have 3 bags (4 lbs each) of mixed berries from Costco on my counter thawing. They are raspberries, blueberries and marionberries. I'm planning on making three gallons.
The recipe I'm planning to use is from winemaking.jackkeller.net called "Wild Mixed berries":
12 lbs ripe berries
6 lbs finely granulated sugar
2 tsp acid blend
1½ tsp pectic enzyme
3 crushed Campden tablets
water to 3 gallons
3 tsp yeast nutrient
1 packet wine yeast
Am I missing anything?
Would 1/8 teaspoon of K-meta be the correct amount for 3 gallons? The campden tablets at the local brew/wine making supply store were sodium instead of potassium metabisulphate.
Which wine yeast? I have Pasteur Champagne and cote des blancs.
Thanks!
